Guess How Many Americans Work in a Hostile Environment
Though not everyone actively enjoys going to work, the idea of walking into your office shouldn't send you into a state of panic or dread. But that's how a disturbing number of Americans feel when they think about going to work. In fact, 20% of U.S. employees claim they work in a hostile environment.
What constitutes a hostile workplace? It can really run the gamut from having an awful boss to disrespectful coworkers to a company culture that lends itself to abusive behavior. And while larger companies are more likely to have policies and procedures in place to protect employees from others' inappropriate behavior, if you work for a small company without an actual human resources department, you may be out of luck.
